I know that double majors within UCLA Engineering is not allowed, but what about having two BS degrees in different engineering majors? In UCLA?
Why? (seriously)
What is the difference between a double major within engineering, and a double major otherwise.
And I agree…why a double major in two engineering disciplines?
UCLA does not offer any double bachelor’s degrees AFAIK. UCLA will also not admit (to undergrad) any students who have already earned a bachelor’s degree.

For example: BS in Chemical Engineering and Mechanical Engineering, both earned at the same time from UCLA
The question remains: why? There are some colleges where you can dual degree in both (eg, UMi), but what is it that you want from your UG degree?

Either way you present it, it is still a double major.
Direct quote from UCLA website:
Double-major possible: Yes. Students may double major only if the second major is outside the School of Engineering and must be approved by the other major and college
Students often find themselves conflicted because they like multiple things. They think they need to major in everything they like. That’s a mistake, especially for engineering. The curricula are too full.
Reading between the lines, I suspect you really like Physics and Chemistry.
What you need to do is to reverse engineer your path. Envision what you want to do in your work life. Then figure out what major and additional classes gets you there.
What is that and why do you think two degrees will be beneficial? I ask because we can help you plot a path that will get you there without double majoring.
